About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

SHE WANTS HIM BACK. SHE WANTS YOU GONE.

Finally, Georgia has found the one. Luke is kind, handsome, and makes her feel safe - which is what she needs after everything she's been through.

The only problem is his ex-girlfriend.

Luke says Cadence just can't accept the breakup, and that explains the texts, the emails, the notes...

But then things start to go very wrong - will Cadence really do whatever it takes to get what she wants?

Fans of Lisa Jewell, Rachel Abbott and Adele Parks will love this gripping and twisty psychological suspense.

Critic reviews

An extremely twisty tale of obsession and revenge, this psychological thriller will quickly get under your skin - be prepared for some late nights 'til you finish it!
Expect dark themes and plot twists a plenty in this intense, creepy thriller
A very modern love story with an eerily prescient twist
A darkly, thrilling surprise
Aussie noir is all the rage at the moment and The Ex-Girlfriend is as grand guignol a slice as anyone could wish for
Gripping, dramatic and with twists you won't see coming, this book held me in its spell from the first page. I loved this book
I thought it was fresh, atmospheric, feminist and had me turning the pages into the small hours. A total treat
This cleverly written book by Moriarty sucks you in right from the first page. If you love a gripping read, with twists around the corner, then this is one for your reading list
A fast-paced pulpy psychological thriller with Netflix written all over it
A pacy, gripping thriller, but also full of heart and plenty of laughs for comic relief. Key themes of mental health and the different ways humans control each other and the importance of friendship shine brightly, wrapped in an absorbing, terrifying tale that perfectly captures the zeitgeist

Parts of it were really good but then it seemed to keep going off into tangents. The end is very underwhelming too.

Confusing

The book started off really slow and I almost gave up, but glad I persevered as it did improve.
I did suss out the plot right ftom the start but wanted to know how it would unfold.
Luke /Sam was a vile, conniving control freak and I couldn't wait for him to be caught out.
Cadence (ridiculous name!) was a pathetic wimp, I wanted to shake her, surely nobody could be so naive. I was pleased when she FINALLY got a brain and a backbone though.
All in all it was a good book, I enjoyed listening to it. I will look out for more from this author.

Slow start but good in the end.
